Installing the Utility Software
System Requirements
To use the AirEZY-2411-BT Wireless Ethernet Adapter’s utilities software, your
computer must meet the following minimum requirements:
Windows® 95 (OSR2)/ 98 (SEC)/ME/2000/XP
Ethernet capable computer with RJ-45 port (either built-in or add-on NIC)
Installation
To install the utility program, simply insert the CD-ROM provided and the
installation process will finish with you clicking a few “OK”. The installation copies
the Utility program and its run-time support (components of Visual Basic) onto
the host computer without altering any settings of the host computer..
Notice that the operation of the AirEZY-2411-BT is independent of the Utility
Program. Therefore, it is NOT necessary to install the Utility on the network-
device/computer that you plan to install the AirEZY-2411-BT. For example, if you
plan to connect a printer server wirelessly to the network with the AirEZY-2411-
BT, you do not need to have the Utility Program installed on the printer server—
you will not be able to! In this example, you configure the AireEZY-2411-BT as a
Station on a PC installed with the Utility Program, disconnect it from the PC, then
connect it to the printer server. While the Utility program must run on a computer
equipped with Microsoft Windows, the radio can operate with computers/devices
of any OS.
Also notice that to configure or monitor the radio with the Utility program, the
computer running the Utility program can be either directly connected to the radio
or connected to the same subnet the radio is connected to.
